mod_http_oauth2: Implement stateless dynamic client registration
Replaces previous explicit registration that required either the
additional module mod_adhoc_oauth2_client or manually editing the
database. That method was enough to have something to test with, but
would not probably not scale easily.
Dynamic client registration allows creating clients on the fly, which
may be even easier in theory.
In order to not allow basically unauthenticated writes to the database,
we implement a stateless model here.
per_host_key := HMAC(config -> oauth2_registration_key, hostname)
client_id := JWT { client metadata } signed with per_host_key
client_secret := HMAC(per_host_key, client_id)
This should ensure everything we need to know is part of the client_id,
allowing redirects etc to be validated, and the client_secret can be
validated with only the client_id and the per_host_key.
A nonce injected into the client_id JWT should ensure nobody can submit
the same client metadata and retrieve the same client_secret

--- summary: Audit Logging rockspec: {} ... This module provides infrastructure for audit logging inside Prosody. ## What is audit logging? Audit logs will contain security sensitive events, both for server-wide incidents as well as user-specific. This module, however, only provides the infrastructure for audit logging. It does not, by itself, generate such logs. For that, other modules, such as `mod_audit_auth` or `mod_audit_register` need to be loaded. ## A note on privacy Audit logging is intended to ensure the security of a system. As such, its contents are often at the same time highly sensitive (containing user names and IP addresses, for instance) and allowed to be stored under common privacy regulations. Before using these modules, you may want to ensure that you are legally allowed to store the data for the amount of time these modules will store it. Note that it is currently not possible to store different event types with different expiration times.
